FilmOn, the world’s largest free internet television provider, has now launched the Seattle antenna array, making it the 12th FilmOn data center in the US offering consumers free access to individual antennas over the internet. The antennas are outperforming competitor Aereo in coverage, size and price.

FilmOn is offering it’s full service in New York, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Miami, Denver, Atlanta, New Jersey and Connecticut. Within the next two weeks, Philadelphia, Detroit, Minneapolis and Honolulu will join the ranks of the aforementioned cities allowed to utilize all of the components of the FilmOn antenna. The 2nd Circuit court order prevents consumers from tuning their remote antennas to major networks for free, but local TV stations are still available in the 2nd Circuit through FilmOn. Cities that fall within the 2nd Circuit include San Francisco, Phoenix and Los Angeles.

Billionaire media entrepreneur Alki David said of the official Seattle opening, “This is an important day for FilmOn because we have opened a fourth data center within the 2nd Circuit. The Federal Court of Appeals is hearing our case on August 27th where we sincerely hope an unfair decision is overturned. In the 2nd Circuit (mainly West Coast), we are currently restrained from allowing consumers to tune in to NBC, FOX, CBS and ABC via our perfectly legal antenna arrays. Unlike would-be competition we do not charge audiences to watch something that is already freely available.”

“We have been likened to being an Aereo copycat service, but we are in far more cities with our antenna arrays than any other firm,” David added. “We carry over 600 live worldwide channels, plus 45,000 Video On Demand titles – and all for free. FilmOn has been in business since 2006 and we produce and license content from premium providers, which clearly makes us a totally different proposition to any other service.”
